not again !! check this website prices

[Desert JATO]

i have no doubt that this is just another not trusted website, as the prices shown all what it's about
but what makes me more angry is that why fedex, wu, and other big corperate names doesn't launch ligal files against such websites as they uses their logos on such fooling way

http://www.rctoyfishingreels.com/tra...407-p-883.html

[hskb]

Just ordered a few, couldn't resist with the price

[Desert JATO]

Huh ... no way
just asking why does not any of these big companies files any ligal comply against the owner of these websites and even the internet website company that rent the domain itself ?

[1979chevy.]

Really? That beats all haha.

[Kyleb]

Wow those prices can't be right. A new revo 3.3 for $200. Somebody has to try these guys out!!

[humayrayakongkinaon]

thats like a price of a roller, hahahah

[upbasher]

Wow...savage xl for $235????? Wow...ok, who's going to be the guinea pig?

[MAXXXMASHER]

Seems legit! How about a Mamba Monster 2200 combo for $120!!! If it's too good to be true.....

[holeyguy66]

they are prolly doinmg what the ebay body parts stores do. cheap parts cost but make it up in shipping

[Dknuckles]

Those prices are way lower than item dealer costs! Something is amiss...

[kwe]

Just ordered a Summit from there.

[kwe]

JK. I would not fall for these scams!

[Strykeviper]

lol I put in fake info to see what the checkout process was. Wire transfer or western union to China for payment options. And the following on the confirmation page:

After finish payment , please send a payment transfer receipt copy to my email:
nicebusinesswithyou gmail com (editted to not show up as a real address on here) and tell us your item size .
Hope we can make many times business with you.
Best regards!

The email address is the funniest part

I suggest not putting personal info on that site

[mike-susieq1]

i tried the same thing and said the excalt same thing. funny but if site was legit ooh boy would i be all over about 5 of those rc's right now maxing out plastic LOL. maybe the wife would let me dont know though she would want something too humm worth it or not. well have to see later on.......

[upbasher]

If this site was legit it would change the entire hobby.
A rustler xl-5 is probably $50

[Little Smokey]

I know right!! I'm VERY tempted to place an order. Looks too good to be true though, check out their 'about us' & contact info... or lack of.

[hatethmpr]

i just did that exact thing. showed one of the guys here at work that stuff. he laughed. i didnt get all the way through the comments on here. but its hilarious.

[upbasher]

Someone send them an email and ask how they are selling rc's so cheap.

[bajaboy501]

wow anyone who orders from that site will have some major problems. I wouldnt trust it you get what you pay for thats for sure.

[cuda0872]

haha so funny stampede 4x4 vxl $130 savge x 4.6 $168 i would be buying these and turning sround and selling them if this was legit

[djbird1xx]

Wow what a scam lol! a jato 3.3 cost $108, I am so tempted to buy, but I am going to resist.

[Petertje60]

I just ordered a few XO-1s and paid with my plastic dollars account

[The VXL]

I can pretty much guarantee this website is just bogus. It's definitely a phishing attempt and should not be taken lightly. I highly discourage anyone from even viewing this website let alone enter personal details!

[thecoolman101]

i suggest nobody buy, if you put in a credit card number he or she could steal it and use it as his own.
another thing, they cant make it up in shipping, it says FREE SHIPPING on the page! lol

[Nitronaught]

First rule of any kind of purchasing.... If it sounds too good to be true it probably is...

Sure,,, an XO-1 for $472.00.... If you believe this, I've some beach front property in Arizona I will be more than happy to give you a good deal on...

So being the curious one I did a little digging into their website...

And when you go into the checkout process, the page you put your personal information,,,, not secure! and to top that,,,, They want you to western Union a money order or wire transfer funds!!!! I would definitely avoid using that site like the plague!!!

This site raises more red flags than anything I've seen in a while...

[slowenuff]

China doesn't care. And you can't sue them cause their government doesn't care. Bmw lost their suit with them over the Bmw x5 knock off. What hope does anyone else have?

[Desert JATO]

...... But this time, this hobby shop got a physical address and got two barnches both in Jakarta & Singapore!
i sent them an email asking why they are selling so cheap and waiting for thier respond.

i'll update.

[TRXnewbie21]

That's terrible these places are like that. Someone who may be looking into getting into the hobby may stumble upon these sites and actually order from there not knowing any better.

[Desert JATO]

yeh, they are showing some "points" that indecating that thier online shop works for real, but still i'm not fully sure

Here's thier email answer just arrived :

[ Dear Mr
I'm Mario from Harahap Hobby customer caring team,Yes sir, we can sell lowest than other supplier in Europe or middle eastbecause we not pay the item taxes in our country.Fell free for contacting us if you have another questions.It's our pleasure to assist you.Thank youBest Regards].

Harap hobby

i don't believe that taxes would make several hundereds off dollars deference!
on the other hand, i got a feeling saying that they are might be a real buesniss shop buy not selling a real genuine products.

Harahaphobby

Here's the online shop's email : orders@harahaphobby.com

now ask them the same question i asked them and post your brilliant thoughts

[turbo_cat1]

I'd love to hear whether they come through with someone's order at the listed price.

There's no recourse with those wire transfers or Western Union transfers, right?

[Nitronaught]

OK,,, they take your information on an Unsecured web page, so it can be seen by others. They have nothing that give you any official verification that they are a valid online retailer since they have no SSL Certificate.

OH and I love their payment options
How Would You Like to Pay?
Bank Wire Transfer
Western Union


Forget it!

And that old saying still applies.... I fit sounds too good to be true it probably is... Even the domain is registered in a way that you can not easily trace them..

But... Hee Hee Hee

I did some of my handywork.....

Their domain says they are hosted by NOC4HOSTS.COM in Tampa Florida.... WRONG!!!!!! They have falsified their domain registrations!!!!!!

I traced their server, it's not with NOC4HOSTS.COM at all. Here's where their server is located.

Hostname: velocity1.rumahweb.com
IP Country: United States
IP Country Code: USA
IP Continent: North America
IP Region: New York
Guessed City: New York
IP Latitude: 40.7619
IP Longitude: -73.9763
Organization: Rumahweb Indonesia
ISP Provider: NOC4Hosts


So they have No SSL, falsified their domain, and hiding... Bad idea to use them... VERY BAD

[Desert JATO]

nice work Nitronaught

it's really something fantastic to have someone with the experties in IT here in the forum like Nitronaught. at least we all get the right trusted final words when judging over certain things.

.... i wish if we got someone with the same knowledge in the electrical feild so he can give us a trusted point about Jang's MA review claims.

[Chriser0]

I trust jangs reviews on battery's. He got some good knowledge for a old guy (I'm kidding about him being old).

[zonda95]

another good idea would be to have them take pictures of rc car to see if they,are legit.
